Dozens of employers will converge at Harper College on Friday, Oct. 7, for the annual Fall Job Fair, with a goal of giving Northwest suburban residents new opportunities to get hired.

The fair runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the lower level of the College's Wellness and Sports Center, Building M, on the main campus, 1200 W. Algonquin Road in Palatine. It is free and open to the public.

Employers represent full-time, part-time and internship positions in a variety of companies — from Target to Little City — and a long list of career fields, including finance, health care, information technology, public safety and sales and marketing. More than 75 employers — about a dozen more than last year — are registered, and all have job openings.

An online job preparation workshop, tips for navigating fairs successfully, and a list of employers can be found on the college's website, www.harpercollege.edu. For details, call (847) 925-6720.
